"Miss Xiaosang, don't you find it strange?"
Little Meng turned to Gu Xiaosang and said solemnly, "Only the Hall of This Life is left in the Three-life Hall. The Halls of Past Life and Next Life have been destroyed."
He pointed to the outside of the Hall of This Life, which was in ruins.
The bricks and stones of the Immortal Hall were scattered, and the ground made of white clouds was shattered. The surroundings were a mess, as if it had been ravaged by wind, burned by fire, and struck by lightning. The place was covered in scorch marks.
"Miss Xiaosang, this place was obviously attacked and destroyed by someone."
Little Meng's expression was very serious. "Why did they leave the Hall of This Life behind? There must be something fishy about this! "
Thinking of the Karma of the Almighty, Little Meng felt that this Three-life Hall was left behind on purpose.
He then thought of how Gu Xiaosang walked through the Nine Heavens as if she was going home. Then she came to this Hall of This Life that was obviously left behind on purpose.
It would be strange if there was nothing fishy about this place.
"Perhaps this Hall of This Life is still useful to the person who destroyed it."
Gu Xiaosang's eyebrows relaxed, and she did not care.
"She really knows something."
Little Meng understood that Gu Xiaosang knew many secrets.
It was just that … it was too difficult to make Demoness Gu say it out loud, and to make her speak the truth. Little Meng did not have any hope.
"Husband, let's go find the Three-life Fruit!"
Gu Xiaosang walked to the mirror and made a hand seal. Airflow gathered and condensed into petals in the center of the mirror.
"Buzz!"
The mirror suddenly emitted a clear light and rippled like water. It slowly split open, revealing a flight of stairs that led downwards!
"Oh!"
Gu Xiaosang took a step back and looked surprised. "I just thought that the pattern on the mirror looked familiar and was compatible with a forbidden spell. I tried a little and it actually opened the secret passage."
"Keep pretending! Keep pretending! "
Little Meng's mouth twitched.
Demoness Gu, your acting skills are not up to par this time! You're so obviously faking it!
"Husband, let's go down!"
Gu Xiaosang turned a blind eye to Xiao Meng's disdainful look. Her sleeves fluttered as she stepped into the secret passage.
Little Meng looked up as they walked down the stairs. There was a cave below.
There were only nine flights of stairs, and they soon reached the end.
The cave in front of him wasn't big. The soil in the cave was piled up like a garden.
In the middle of the cave, there was a tall and slender green tree. Before his eyes, he could only see a section of the tree's trunk. The bottom of the tree reached the ground and the top of the cave. The tree's sap stretched out and its roots spread out. It seemed to be connected to every place in this layer of the sky!
At the foot of the tree, there was a stone table. A palm-sized jade plate was placed on top of it. It was covered with dense seal scripts and patterns.
On the right side of the stone table, there was a strange plant with only three branches and one leaf. It was no more than three feet tall.
It was shaped like a withered firewood, with branches on its left, right, and top. In the center of the branches were two thumb-sized green fruits, which emitted a mysterious and indescribable aura.
"Husband, that's the Three Lives Fruit."
Gu Xiaosang carefully walked over and took out the strange vase and a small jade hammer. She gently knocked the two fruits into the vase and quickly sealed it.
"Husband, this jade disc contains the Celestial Emperor's cultivation technique."
After taking the two so-called Three Lives Fruit, Gu Xiaosang seemed to be very happy. She pointed at the jade disc on the stone table and smiled at Little Meng. "The Celestial Emperor's cultivation technique is awe-inspiring. You can't miss it."
"The Celestial Emperor's cultivation technique?"
Little Meng frowned slightly. He couldn't figure out who this "Celestial Emperor" was.
In the legends on Earth, the Celestial Emperors were "Eastern Emperor Taiyi", "Haotian Emperor", and "Jade Emperor".
Later on, the "Jade Emperor" gradually replaced the "Clear Sky Emperor" and merged the legends of the two into one.
Was the "Celestial Emperor" in front of him the original "Haotian" or the later "Jade Emperor"? Or was he the "Eastern Emperor Taiyi" who was killed?
"I'd better let the Master of Samsara appraise it to prevent any tricks."
He reached for the jade disc, but the ring on his hand secretly aimed at the jade disc. He secretly asked the Master of Samsara to appraise it.
"'Three Lives Jade Disc', Jade Emperor's cultivation technique. The initial version of 'Celestial Emperor's Jade Book'. "
Little Meng was relieved to hear the Master of Samsara's appraisal.
"Jade Emperor? The Celestial Emperor's Jade Book in this world is related to time. The Time Blade is the Celestial Emperor's weapon. Controlling three lives, isn't that the power of time? Sure enough. "
He waved his hand and put the "Three Lives Jade Disc" into the Storage Ring.
With this harvest, this trip to the Nine Heavens was already a huge gain.
The exchange price of "Celestial Emperor's Jade Book" in the Master of Samsara in Six Realms was an astronomical figure.
"What is this tree?"
In the middle of the cave, there was only a section of a giant tree trunk, which seemed to be connected to the endless void. Little Meng was very curious about it, so he couldn't help asking the Master of Samsara to appraise it.
"The Jianmu, also known as the World Tree, is the Tree of Da Dao. It bears all the Dao, connects the heavens, and is the foundation of the world and the power of the Celestial Emperor. "
"The Jianmu? So it's this thing! "
Little Meng took a deep breath.
In the legends on Earth, he had heard of the legend of the "Jianmu to Heaven".
Well, this was not something he could do.
"Optional task: cut off a section of the World Tree's branch."
"Task reward: None! Task penalty: None! Task introduction: None! "
Suddenly, Little Meng received another "optional task" from the Master of Samsara.
"Three no tasks! So … should I do it or not? "
There was no reward, no punishment, and no introduction. If he wanted to do it, he could do it. If he didn't want to, he could choose not to.
But because of this, Little Meng hesitated.
Since he joined the "Master God Team" and received the support of the Master of Samsara, it seemed that the Master of Samsara did not set any obstacles, nor did he impose any punishment such as "obliteration".
It seemed that the Master of Samsara's tasks were all up to him. If he didn't want to do it, he could choose not to do it. If he completed it, there would be a reward. If he didn't, there would be no punishment.
"This way … Rule by doing nothing? Taishang Laojun? Is Taishang Laojun behind the Master of Samsara? "
After a few thoughts, Little Meng decided to take a section of the Jianmu's branch.
Walking to the side of the Jianmu's trunk, Little Meng found a section of a small branch that had just sprouted and cut it with his sword.
"Clang!"
The violent shock almost made Little Meng's sword fly out of his hand. And on that tender green branch, there was not even a trace of a mark left behind.
"Hubby, what are you doing? How can you cut the Jianmu's branch! The Jianmu represents the whole world. If you cut the Jianmu's branch, isn't it the same as cutting the whole world? "
Gu Xiaosang looked at Little Meng, dumbfounded. She did not know what was wrong with him.
"She really knows that this is the Jianmu's branch."
Little Meng looked at Gu Xiaosang thoughtfully and nodded with a smile. "I'm just cutting it for fun."
"…"
Gu Xiaosang rolled her eyes. "I'd be a fool to believe you!"
"Hint: Put the 'Master God's tool' in contact with the Jianmu's branch and silently say 'collect' in your heart. You can collect a section of the Jianmu's branch."
"Why didn't you say so earlier!"
Little Meng felt like he was being teased. He sighed gloomily and walked to the side of the Jianmu's branch. With a wave of his hand, a section of the Jianmu's branch disappeared instantly.
"Huh?"
Gu Xiaosang looked at Little Meng deeply. This cheap "hubby" seemed to be … a little complicated!
Could it be that he had awakened the memories of his previous life? Or … was there someone behind the scenes?
